PIRIT OV THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We learned, in the afternoon of yesterday, that Lord Durham had arrived in town. Whether or not, there are rumours abroad that he will have (in some quarters it was said that he will be suffered to have) no communication with her Majesty's Ministers before the meeting of Parliament, when his Lordship is to make good his case against Minis ters, and the Ministers are to make good their case against Lord Durham, and so they are to devour each other like the pair of Irish cats. Impeachments are said to be talked of, and cross-impeachments, in the course of which there will, no doubt, be plenty of recrimination on both sides ; bvit whether any really useful light is to be thrown upon the subject by either party, is a point beyond our pre science. One thing, according to actual appearances, is certain—viz., that Lord Durham professes to have been a man perfidiously treated and deeply injured by her Majesty's Ministers—a charge which derives no sort of discountenance from the history or general reputation of those against whom it has been brought. If such be Lord Durham's inward sense of the conduct he has experienced from the Government which employed him, and if with this feeling of individual wrong the Noble Lord has bona fide a superadded conviction that plans of improvement for the future administration and condition of the Canadas, which might have been matured and realized under his guidance, have been frustrated or indefinitely postponed by his return, we shall say nothing now of the offence he has committed by the desertion of his duties and his post ; but on the other branch of the subject, namely, the loss sustained, or the be nefit secured by or to the empire through such an occurrence, the Conservatives owe it to themselves to grant Lord Dur ham that of which he has but a slender chance from his late employers —to wit, a dispassionate hearing. If Lord Dur ham and his Radical friends had not tormented the public with such incessant solicitation that all credit should be given exclusively to him, and none at all to the miserable Government for whom he acted, nine men out of ten throughout the kingdom would, on the mere evi dence of former years, have assumed that, whatever might be thought of the noble autocrat's discretion, be would tell more truth and display more integrity (which is not saying much) than the bulk of the still existing Cabinet. He has heaped suspicion upon his own case by he ravenous frequency of his premature appeals to the nation. Even, however, as it is, we are bound to say, that with all the factitious advantages of the more reserved and prudent course which has been adopted by, or forced upon, the Queen's advisers, the preponderant conjecture throughout the community is, that when Lord Durham's " disclosures" come to be made, the Ministers will suffer from them some degrees more than he will. Be this as it may, the indications of the last week would lead a calm observer to imagine that a new and curious modification of parties is about to show itself, in Great Britain at least, though not so soon in Ireland. The honest portion of the Radicals (most dangerous be cause they are most honest) have declared the deep disgust they entertain for the grovelling selfishness of the official Whigs ; their hollow indifference to all fixed principle ; their incessant shuffle and restless anxiety as to all that affects, however remotely, the tenure of their places and their salaries ; the readiness with which they change their measures, and not their measures alone, but their doctrines and professions, to suit the profit of the passing hour ; these Radicals lay claim to Lord Durham for their leader ; and treated as he says he has been by Ministers, and little prospect as there is of his finding in Lord Brougham a rival to be at all dreaded where a solid hold of any popular faction is to be scrambled for, who knows but that Lord Durham may for a while put on the mask of " Liberalism," and condescend to wield the truncheon of democracy, until he shall become powerful enough to entice recruits from the aristocratic army, when, like O'Connell, he may " kick off" the friends who have raised him, and boast of his power to requite them by insult and persecution. It is characteristic enough of the Queen's Ministers with what an uniformity of " shabbiness" they have turned to acconnt the analogous elements of Irish and Canadian disaffection. The Popish demagogues and con spirators of Ireland had long been levying war in disguise against the integrity of the empire. But the convenienc e of compounding with disloyalty and shutting the eyes of Ministers to the malpractices of those traitors, was im pressed upon them by the knowledge that 60 or 70 votes in Parliament were at the beck of him by whom the trea son was directed ; they durst not, therefore, make even a show of censure upon the Irish conspiracy on ain of being dismissed from office. With regard to Canada, there was likewise in that quarter a " war in disguise against the integrity of the British empire. The Ministers knew it—all the world were conscious of it. But as there was a veil of grievance, however flimsy, flung over t, the Ministers, as in Ireland, took care to " shut their eyes"—and why ? The 'Canadians had no seats in the Im perial Parliament, but they had in that Parliament quasi ropresentatives—th e most violent democrats, or so" ething more than democrats (if such a race exist), in the House of Commons, whose votes were not less necessary to the Mi nisterial majority than were those of the Irish Papists, though far less numerous than the latter. When the army in Canada ought to have been increased, and the germs of rebellion crushed, and some brave and skil ful officer made Governor-General of the Canadas with martial law for his code, Lord Go-ford, as the nominal head of a nondescript and ridiculous mission, was sent to play fast and loose, and ask useless questions, and write home long and uninstructive reports just to keep up the game of " make believe" and " hoodwink"— until the Canadians themselves naturally believing that the people of England, who tolerated such long-visaged farces must be a tribe of fools or cowards easy to impose upon, sod not difficult to frighten, became impatient of such irksome and despicable frivolities, and broke to pieces the whole Ministerial magic lantern, by bursting one winter's day into un-" disguised rebellion." The system of Mi nisterial cheatery could therefore no longer be carried on. Rebellion was rebellion and "no mistake." Troops were sent—not so soon, or half so many, as there ought to have been —but troops, and a " dictator." The dicta tor has been beaten, and forced to run for it, which we trust the troops will not. But see what the Radicals in the British Parliament the quasi representatives of Canada, will say to this. Sir William Molesworth seems to eive notice, that they will say and do whatever shall be written down for them by Lord Durham. However, the sum of matters is this—that the Queen's Ministers looked on at real but an avowed rebellion in Canada, for fear of I , sing English Radical votes ; when the mask of grievance was thrown aside in Canada, the mask of credulity was (per force) discarded here. The Irish fraud is still in progress. The Popish conspirators on the eastern side of the Atlantic have not yet made open war upon Great Britain. When they do, and Ministers find that if they keep their eyes closed much longer, they may chance next to open them after their heads are off—why then, and not till then, we may see an Irish dictator appointed. But whence are his troops to come from? It is not for the cause of Queen Victoria, that the serpent's teeth her favourite advisers have been so diligently sowing will spring up, when she requires it, " armed men."—Times. It is with unm i xed satisfaction that we announce the final ratification at Constantinopl e of the treaty of com merce concluded between Great Britain and Turkey. It will be found at length in another column. The conclu sion of this treaty may be regarded as one of the most sig. nal diplomatic triumphs achieved for a long series of years. This even the opponents of Ministers must admit. In Point of fact they have already admitted it. But a few weeks have elapsed since, in reply to an allusion we made to the treaties then negotiating with Turkey and Austria, we were coarsely assured that " Lord Palmerston could never realize the promises of his Newspaper sponsors." The " promises," however, have been realised. In despite of the formidable obstacles opposed to it, the ratification of the treaty has been exchanged. The Pacha of Egypt has submitted—France has a cquiesced—Austria has co operated—Russia has been baffled, and England has not been involved in a war. By the fir s t c l ause of th i s impor tant treaty ou r t ra d e with Turkey is for ever protected from those invidious distinction s and exclusions of parti cular articles to which, under the plea of " protecting na tional manufacture," it is subjected in ether countries. The establishment of a low and fixed duty to be paid by the importer, in lieu of those formerly levied on the purchaser, and the abolition of all those mischievous impositions of the interior custom-houses and provincial governors, cannot fail to give a considerable impulse to our trade. By the second article foreign goods in the hands of our merchants are entitled to the same priv ileges and freedom of circulation, and we are thereby constituted agents for all such na tions as may not choose to become parties to this con vention. By the third article, our vessels are for ever freed from any taxes or charges in passing th e Dard ane ll es or B osp h orus w hi c h t h e jealous influence of Russia might at any time induce the Turks to impose upon them, with a view to impede our navigation or injure our commerce.

By . the first arti c l e o f t h e secon d part a ll pr i v il eges, r i g h ts , an d im munities grante d by t h e present an d f ormer treat i es are for ever confirmed ; and, by a guarantee that we shall be for ever placed on the same footing as every other foreign Power, a protection is afforded from the difficulties in which the framing of secret and unrecognised articles of treaties by other Powers might have a tendency to involve us. The second article of this part permits a free trade and export throughout the Ottoman dominions of every article the country produces or manufactures. The twofold effect of thus developing the resources of Turkey, by en riching her treasury, and rendering her independent of Russia for those articles which she is now obliged fl-giee'ke t = her, canna be estimated t oo hi g hl y.

We regret to say that up to this hour the Gazette, containing the official dispatches, has nut been published, although these dispatches arrived in town early this forenoon. It was understood from authority that these despatches would be published very early in the day, it being the wish of the Govern ment to diffuse the official intelligence all over the country. What the cause of the delay has been we cannot imagine, for a dozen Gazettes might have been composed and printed within the time. We shall endeavour by Monday to ascertain the cause of this delay. In the meantime we are happy to understand that the official despatches contain merely more copious details of the events which are already narrated in our columns this day, together with the various movements of the detachments of the forces in Canada. consequent upon the irruption of the rebels. DREADFUL MURDER AND ARSON AT THE NEWCASTLE SAVINGS' BANK. (From the Newcastle Courant of Doc. 7.) Courant Office, Friday Morning, Three o'Clock. This mornin7, shortly before two o'clock, a fire w as discovered in the waiting-room of the Savings' Banks situated at the south-west end of the Arcade, in this town. It speedily destroyed the cha;rs and oiler furniture in the room, and two of the large window, which look into Manor -street, as well as the entrance door from the Royal Arcade. By great exertions, how ever, on the part of the firemen of the NeweaSt le and North British offices, the flames were got under in a short time ; but no sooner were they so far subdued as to admit of the Savings' Bank being entered, than a most appalling spectacle was presented ; for it was found that some desp, rate at tempt at robbery, as was supposed, had been made, and that life had been sacrificed in some terrible strw2gle which had taken place. The dead body of a man was discovered in the first instanco, with his face and head so dreadfully cut and broken as to prevent all chance of recognizing the features ; and then that of Mr. Bolam, actuary of the bank, with his throat cut, and insensible, but still alive, in the 'oath-west corner of the room. Being near the annual meeting of the institution, it is conjectured that Mr. B. had remained late at the office, engaged with his banking books ; and that some person or persons had entered with a view to robbery. Finding Mr. Bolam there, an at tempt seems to have been made to murder him, and he had probably used a poker in self-defence, one having been found on the fluor, much bent, and besinearet'. with blood and human hair.—We had written thus far, when in formation reached us that it was suspected the dead body was that of Mr. Millie, an assistant to Mr. Bolan). If thiA should he the case, the horrible character of the transacilOn is fearfully increased—robbery, murder, and arson, being mixed up in one appalling whole, and forming a body of crime rarely paralleled in the worst page of our criminal his tory.—A messenger has this moment arri%ed, who knew Mr. Millie well, and, notwithstandin g the disfigured state of the features, he expresses little doubt that it is the body of the unfortunate assistant. (From the Second Edition.) We have now ascertained such particulars as leave no doubt that the deceased was Mr. Mellie ; and no thing can be more awful to look upon than the cruel mangling which his head and face have undergone front the hands of his assassin. Mr. Armstrong, of this offiee, who is cashier of the bank, was the first to enter the premises after the fire had been overcome, in company with Sub-inspector Bell, and while en gaged in examining what mischief bad be en done, he was suddenly alarmed at striking his foot against the body of a man. Lights . having been procured, they per ceived the body was lying face downwards, and on turning it over a sickening spectacle presentee' itself to the view. The features were knocked on one side, evi dently with a heavy blow ; the left jaw was broken, two cuts were on the forehead, and at the back part of the head the skull was laid bare. On further ex amination, they found what they consid• red th, dead body of Mr. Bolam ling near the south-west cnrner of the bank ; but on being lifted up they ob served signs of life. Mr. P. Glenton, surgeon, was immediately sent for ; and under his direction Mr. B. was conveyed to Mr. Glenton's reside nee, where Messrs. Nesham and Walker, surgeons, were also speedily in attendance. Mr. All. Dunn and Mr. William Woods were likewise soon at the house, anxiously waiting Mr. Bolam's expected recosery, in order to learn som e echr, et particulars of what had taken place up to the time he had lost his senses. Between three and four in the mornini, Mr. Bolas was so far recovered as to he able to give some account of the transaction, and we gathered the following, at interv-ils, from his His : I have lately had two or three anonymous letters, threat • ening to do me harm ; and one was put under the door of the saving bank last evening after dark, saying that some thing would happen to me at home. In consequence of this, though I generally get my tea at the bank, I went home, the other clerk, Millie. having previously gone to his tea. I returned about half-past seven o'clock in the evening, and finding the door locked as I had left it, I opened it, and put the key into my pocket. When I got into the b ink, I saw Millie lying on the rug, and I thought he had fallen asleep. He also has a key, and sometimes locked him-elf in. I then went towards my desk, intending immediately to go and speak to Millie, but while I was about to op;,u my desk, I thought I heard some one coning behind, and was in the act of turning round when I received a blow on my right temple from a man in disguise, with his face blackened. I immediately started up, and ran shouting towards the window, intend ing to give an alarm, on which the man followed me, and said if I stirred, or made the least noise, he would serve me as he had served the other man. He struck me again, when I was near the window ; and when I was down, I felt a knife at my throat. Shortly after this I became in sensible for a while ; but afterwards my recollection seemed to return, and I heard somebody in the other office, as I supposed, going about and making a noise. I dared not make the least outcry. I burnt the threatening letters which I had previously received. The one which I found last night under th e wa i t i ng - room door, I left upon m7 desk. I cannot well describe the man, excepting that I think he was under the middle size, and spoke roughly, but apparently in a feignen voice. I had a few shillings in my pocket, and I think 41. 10s. in my desk, which was left by Mr. Airey to deposit on Saturday. In the inner safe I had a further sum of 801. of my own, which I kept to meet current expenses. --- Further than this Mr. Bolam had no recollection of what took place, and there can be little doubt that his senses would soon leave him from the loss of blood, and suffocation caused by the fire. The poor unfortunate Millie (whose body remains at the bank, awaiting the inquest) after having been on pre bation for some time, was only fully appointed to the office of assistant clerk of the Savings' Bunk at the Meeting. of the Directors on Tuesday last. He was a well disposed man, and greatly respected ; he was about 50 years of age, and a widower, with several childr« n. H e was fitrmerly a hardwareman in South Shields, having succeeded his lather, who was in the s erne busieess. We understand the fire was discovered by police man Nathan Golding at twenty minutes to two o ' c l oc k ; and other . policemen havin bee n collected, they were very active, under th e di rection of their r Snrint-ndent, iit givtriz, the alarm to the firemen and turn-cocks, who promptly repaired to the spot. At this moment, two of the large windows fronting into Manor-street were demolished, and the plow insid e the waiting-room was so intense as to threaten ti.e upper part of the building (ccl-brated for architectural beauty) with destruct-on. Ton Newcastle engine was the first to reach the p'ace, and withnut losing a n, ment's time began to play opon,the doors from the in side of the Arcade. Tae Nerth Btitish foll owe d most immediately, and quickly reduecd the flame s in Manor -street, the demolished windows allowing the water free access into the interior of the bidding. B y the joint exertions of the firemen and twit:maim, the fire was fortunately confined to the wa:ting room in which it originated. Mr. Green, architect, of cupies offices im me . diately above the Bank ; anti above his (tiers, a g apartments were oca upied by Mr. Robson, dealer in lace, the greater portion of whose valuable Kock of lace was removed front tlt corner shop of the A r „,„i t , by the police, and others, to the tesidence o!' Mr. Par,ons, hair-dre , ser, where several ir.dimiduals wore reridily ac commodated. Anotl.er Lundy. l4ho occupied ror 'in, thiev e the Newcastle and North of Ecgli.nd Joint Stock B oi ,k, on the opposite s'de of the Arcade, took shelter in our office. What the Oesign of the party implicated in this frightful husine.s could he, it is difficult to conceive. It was a ru l e that no money should ever be kept in the bank, being deposited in the bank of Sir M. W. Ridley and Co., as soon zs received ; though of course this might not be generally known, and the premises may he 'e entered with a view to plunder. The tmeateol og ters sent to Mr. Bolam, also, are inexplicabli: in :o far as any attempt at robbery is concerned, for they ap pear to have been directed aiwlnst himself, and to ha ve , had little or no connexion with the affairs of the bank. As to the condition in which the premiss were found after the fire, it can only as yet be stated that Mr. Bolam's keys were in the desk, the lock of which was open ; the door of the stone safe was also open, but the inner iron safe was locked, although the key, which Mr. B. said was in his desk, has not been found. The papers and books in the Savings' Bank itself are uninjured ; but those in the stone safe, consisting principally of old account books, are partially burnt. It cannot, however, be as yet positive), stated what has suffered from the fire ; but it is expected that nothing is lost which will interrupt the business of the bank further than this dreadful occurrence may itself occasion. In concluding this hasty account of an event which, in a neighbourhood like this—unmarked as the popu lation is by any disposition to commit crimes of a sanguinary nature, almost paralyzes our conceptions of the reality of the occurrence—we cannot but express an earnest hope that the murderer will speedily be dizcovered, and brought to justice. Committed in the heart of a populous town, almost immediately after night fall, and in premises surrouneed by shops, &c., on all sides, the reckless daring displayed by the perp •trator, is only to be exceeded by the enormity of the deed itself. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of last Evening.) SUGIAR.—The West India Raw Sugar market has been in a very excited state since our last ; the grocers have purchased freely of brown as well as of yellow descriptions ; from the refiners there has been a brisk demand, several parcels have also been taken on speculation, in anticipation that owing to the high pieces of Grain, Sugar will be admitted for dis tillation, and importers have obtained an advance on previou s rates of 2: to 2s 6d ; the purchases privately on Tuesday amounted to 1 100. on Wednesday to 900, and yesterday to 600, making the quantity sold for the three days 2,600 Ithd, and trs, be sides which 133 casks Barbadoes at public sale sold with spirit at prices is to is 6d above those of the last sale, low mid to fine brought 62s to 68s ' • the transactions wouid have b een t o a greater extent had there been a lerger quantity offering for sale, but the supply has become very short, and the assortment indifferent ; by private contract very firm yellow Jamaica has brought 68s; good and flue, 65: to Otis; good mid from other islands, 63s to 64s 6d; rather inferior Grenada in trs, 62s ; low mid in brls, 60s ; good and mid grey Jamaica and St. Kitts, 58s to 598 ; fine brown. 57s ; rather darker, 565; and low brown Jamaica, 555; below thin quality we hale not seen any sold, and there is nothing of dry brown quality to be had under 545; there is every pro bability that present prices will be maintained for the next two months, the stock of unsold being only 18,000 hhds, &c. ; it i 3 now onlv 13,780 hhds and trs more than last year at this period, whereas, a few weeks back, it was nearly 19,000 hhds and trs; the unusual demand which has prevailed of late is to attributed, as we stated a short time back, to the moderate prices. The deliveries last week were large, amounting to 2,672 hhds, and 267 trs ; making the total deliveries for home use this year 114,900 hhds, &c., against 121,660 in 1837. This afternoon there was again a good demand both for the scale and pan, and rather higher prices were obtained, making the rise during the week 2er 6 I a 3s, and 3,200 hhds and trs sold. REFINED.—The grocers have purchased freely of both com mon and the getter description of goods, and prices :Is above those of last Friday have been obtained, lumps equal to the standard have brought 75s a 765, rather under 73s 64 a 745, brown 70s a 735, and wet lumps for packing for the country 725, the stocks held by the re finers are still small, and principally consists of fine goods, The present high rates prevent the execution of export orders, there are buyers of small parcels of double crushed of 365, but no sellers under 3es a 40s. In Treacle there has not been so much business done this as last week, but owing to the short supply buyers have been compelled to pay 29s a 29 , 64 fur common, and 3I s a 32s for patent awl the best old make ; Pieces have been taken freely by the grocers at the ad vanced rates quoted. In bastards of common and good qua lity, the purchases have been rather extensive at 43s a 525. Metteertus.—Buvers have Leen compelled to pay rather higher prices, and there has been a good deal of inquiry, but business was checked by the short supply at market; at pub lic sale 280 bags brought 55s to 63s 6(1 per cwt. The stock and importation are both larger than last year, particularly the former ; 3,107 bags have arrived since our last ; 2 000 bags are declared for auction on Tuesday. This afternoon there was a good demand, a public sale of 3,000 bags west with spirit at prices is above those of last auction. EAST INDIA.—In Bengal business is still checked by the sea ty supply at market; the grocers are ready buyers, and would pay 6Ss to 69.4 for fine white. Foreign East India de scriptions are held firmly ; but the public sales declared for this afternoon have presented much business by private con tract : at auction on Wednesday, 634 bags Manilla sold at 22s 64 to 243 for good brown to low yellow. The arrivals of all descriptions this year are nearly double of what they were last. The stock of Bengal is 7,000 bags less than in 1837 ; but of other kinds it is much larger : since this day week 13 000 bags have been received, 3.100 of which consists of Bengal.. This afternoon 11,468 bags Manilla and 88 bags Bengal for export, only were . ffered at auction; the former sold with animation at an advance on former rates of 6 ; to is, arid were princip,illy taken by th., Refiners, low brown to good yellow went at 214 to 24a 6 1 , damaged 21s to 21s 64 ; the latter sold at 25 , 61 to 26s 6 , 1 for ord white arid grey. Fonetotse—Prices continue very firm for white and yellow flavantiah, and _there has again been several inquiries, but the short supply at mar ket has checked business, and the transac tions have been co- fined to 300 boxes of the latter by private contract at 27s 64; for mid quality none has been offered at auction, and at present nothing is declared. Mot,esses. —We...t India—prices Is above those of this day week, 100 casks Grenada have brought 30a and there are not further sell, rs undo 31s; the lowest point of the market is 28s per cat, the supply has become very short. Tee. —Linder I st sale's prices there are no sellers ; 100,000 packages intended for auction in January next have been exa mined, the quality of' which is vari ous ; t h e i c li ver i cs have fallen off, and since our last have been 433.500 lbs the shipments from Canton to Great Britain frr.m the Ist July, 1837, to the 30th June, 1838, have amenuted to 25,841,836 lbs black, arid 7,574,400 lbs of green tea; three vessels have arrived, and others may be shortly !coked for. COFFEE. —The British Plantation market continues very quiet, particularly for common descriptions, the grocers pur chasing only sufficient to supply their immediate wants, in con sequence of an opinion prevailing that prices will decline to some extent, should importers be determined to sell ; but we are of opinion that the reduced stocks held by the dealers must prevent any reduction of consequence from present rates. At public sale 143 casks 6 brls 286 bags have been brought forward, nearly all of which was bought in at previous rates, about 50 casks, &c., found buyers at the quotations. Of East India none has been ofetred at public sale. Ceylon_ fer small parcels of good ordinary 98s was obtained in the early p art of the week, damaged brought 975, but during the last two day s the transactions have been limited. For Mocha lower prices have not been accepted. Co coe_British Plantation is not offered at lower ptices, but the demand is still limited by private contract. Buyers have been compelled to pay 36s to 37s for Guayaquil, but the demand is still limited. RieE--There has been a good demand for East India by private contract ; for export to the West Indies buyers have been compelled to pay 19s to 20s for low and good white Bengal. Carolina has advanced to 42s to 445. This after noon 1,400 bags Madras at auction ; mid, and good white brought 153 ed a 16s 6d per cwt. RUM, BRANDT, AND HOLLAND/.—For Rum buyers have been compelled to pay rather higher prices fur Leeward!; Jamaica has maintained former rates ; 280 puns of the former have been sold, proofs at 3s 4ild to 3s tid ; in the latter the operations have been only 100 puncheons; 31 to 36 per cent. over proof at 55 2d ; some fine and strong Demerara, for which ss. was offered, was withdrawn from the Market for the present. Brandy—prices 11d per gallon under those of last week have been accepted. In Geneva former rates are maintained. British Corn Spirits remain at 10s 2d, but there is some probability that the price will be advanced to 103 4d or 103 6d next or the following Monday. SPICES. —Fur Pimento prices continue firm; a auction 50 bags brought 3/1 - 1 for ordinary coarse shipping quality. Pepper at late rates white is rather cheaper, 14 bags at auction sold at Is. 6d.

In other countries, as our readers are aware, this immunity can only be purchased by many years of re sidence and naturalisation. The fourth article of this part, by granting a facility of transport, and fixing a specific in terior duty, instead of the oppressive taxes and extortions formerly levied, will give a freedom and extension to Turkish commerce that must be attended with incalculable advantage. The fifth article obviates all the delays and difficulties to which our ships are now exposed in obtaining firmans. We have on former occasions adverted to the ef fect of extending the treaty to Egypt, which is done by the sixth article. We shall take another opportunity of ad verting more fully to this treaty, contenting ourselves for the present with this brief notice, and with congratulating the country upon its ratification.—Morning Chrunicle. MONEY AND CITY NEWS. TIM ES.—The price of Gold at Hamburgh is 436 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10id. per ounce for standard Gold, gives an exchange of 13. 10i, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 7i, it follows that Gold is 1.26 per cent. dearer at Hamburgh than in London. The premium on Gold at Paris is 8 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard Gold, gives an exchange of 25. 35, and the ex change at Paris on London at short being 25. 42k. it follows that Gold is 0. 30 per cent. lower at Paris than in London. IThe course of exchange at New York on London is 1091 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is .07 per cent, against England. A file of papers published at Paz de Ayacucho to the Ist of July has been received. They contain copies at length of the two treaties of fr'endship and commerce con cluded between the Peru Bolivian Confederation and the United States, concluded in the commencement of last year, and that with Great Britain, ratified here in Novem ber of the same year. The most interesting matter, how ever, they contain is the Message of General Santa Cruz, the President of Bolivia, to the Congress Extraordinary at Cochabamba, on the 24th of M.:y last. In this docu ment a siew is taken of the situation of the republic, internal and external, and in particular of the quarrel with Chili, the refusal of the latter to recognize the convention of Paucarpata, though ncgociated under the auspices of the British Government, as represented by its functionaries on that station, and the consequent re newal of hostilities and fitting out another expedition against Peru, which, as detailing no event not previously known here, it is not necessary to dwell up ,, n. At the time of the delivery of this message neither the sailing of the new Chi'Lin expedition nor its subsequent arrival and capture of Lima and Callao could be known. The internal state of Bo liviawould appear, from the description given °lit, to be satis factory. It may be remarked, that whilst revolution has suc ceeded revolution in the other portions of the Peruvian Con federation, and above all in North Peru, Bolivia, since the ac-ession to power of Santa Cruz some years ago, has been almost entirely exempt from civil commotions. " For three years," says the President, " has Bolivia had to sus tain a war with various external foes, and yet tranquillity and security have remained undisturbed in the interior. Industry had continued peaceably to flourish, and nothing of war could be known or heard of but for the public re joicings for victories gained." The answer of the President of the Legislative Body was full of acknowledgments that to the prudent government of Santa Cruz himself the nation was mainly indebted for the blessings enjoyed. On the 30th of May the Congress passed a vote of confidence in him, with a full approval of all his acts. The last ac counts already published left him on his way to Northern Peru. It has been matter of surprise that the Chilians were able, as the last accounts by Panama from Lima stated, to take possession with so much ease of the castles of Callao, which were formerly reckoned so formidable as to be nearly impregnable, and which under Rodil and other officers had been so long held against superior forces and along siege. The surprise was not lessened by the fact announced that Gen. Miller, beyond question the ablest officer which the Spanish American Revolutions have produced, was in command of the fortress for Santa Cruz. It appears however, that much misconception prevails respecting the present strength of Callao, which is no longer capable of defence, as formerly. It is stated that in the time of Salaberry, some time Pre sident of North Peru, all the superb brass cannon were dismounted and sold to some French speculator s b y t h at person, in order to raise money to pay his !mops and d e f en d himself against rival and rebellious chieftains. The fortress , has never since been furnished with cannon to repair this loss, and, consequently, was untenable against any compe tent force with artillery. The brass cannon so disposed of are said since to have been purchased on account of Don Carlos in Spain, were contrived to be landed, and are now actually the most choice portion of the artillery of his army. CHRONICLE.—A meeting was held this morning at the London Tavern, of the Directors of K)an's Anti-Dry Rot Company, and the parties interested in the affairs of that body, in order to take into consideration the circum stances connected with the defalcations imputed to the late managing Director, Mr. Terry, of which so touch has been heard within the last few days. The proceedings were of a most boisterous character, and nothing whatever of a sa tisfactory nature was elicited upon the occasion. It was eventually determined that the books of the Company should be submitted to two or three gentlemen, for the pur pose of being investigated and reported upon preparatory to a future meeting. It is understood that, notwithstanding the misconduct of Mr. Terry, and the apparent negligence of the Directors, whose duty it undoubtedly was to have seen that the scrip certificates re-issued and approprated by that individual to his own use, were destroyed when ex changed for the registered shares, is in a most thriving con dition, and that the question now to be determined is merely upon whom the loss arising from such misconduct should bo fixed. EXTRAORDINAYEMERALD.—.The sensation caused by the magic clock at the shop of Messrs. Savory, in Cornhill, has scarcely subsided, before the attention of the publichasbeen called to a most extraordi nary r merald, ex hibited for side in the shop window of Mr. Walton, goldsmith and jeweller, Ludgate-hill ;it weighs 860 carats, and is in its natural state, just as it was taken from the rock. 1,0001. is the sum asked for this splendid gem, which, it is rTorted, will be purchased for the British Museum. —From a Cor respondent.

Besides Benbi cu l a, which was sold for 96,0001., and Strathconan for 4.s,6.sol.,thereeweevree seven judicial sales in one day in the last month, whn of the properties wer e sold, almost above the upset and one of them nearly .50 per cent. above the upset. -.t Edirtfmrgh, Aldtvrtiser. (FROM TILE MOANING TAPERS OF THIS DAY.) HERALD.—The Money Market, so far as regards the rate of interest upon commercial discounts and on the Stock Exchange, bas not undergone any alteration worthy of comment. There has been rather more business in the Continental exchanges this afternoon, in consequence of the number of bills drawn against the late renewed importations of Foreign corn. The quotations have again further declined, as will be seen by the following rates :—On Paris they have re ceded to 2.5 f. 60c. a 2.5 f. 62ic. ; on Amsterdam to 12 31 ; on Rotterdam to 12 31 a ; on Hamburg to 239 i a 4 ; and on Frankfort to 1:51/. The public mind continues in much suspense respecting the progress of the mock patriots and their quondam adhe rents on the frontiers of our Canadian Provinces, and this circumstance has tended to keep the public out of the Markets for either the British or Foreign Securities, as well as to restrain the operations of the jobbers and dealers in the Stock Exchange. In fact, much anxiety prevails for the arrival of the Great Western, by which some de cided information generally appears to be anticipated. In consequence the operations in the British Funds have been very limited, but there has not been any important al teration in the quotations since yesterday evening. Consols closed at 93i buyers for the opening. The Government Commissioners again made a small purchase of the Three per Cent. Reduced at 92i. The Three-and-a-Half per Cent. Reduced Annuities are 100 i for Money. Bank Stock is 2021. The premium upon Indian Bonds is 63 ; and on Exchequer Bills 64 a 66. In the Foreign Market the business has been most li mited. Portuguese New Five per Cents are 29i, and the Three per Cent. ditto 19i. Spanish Bonds, with the May Coupons, are 164 ae. Brazilian are 77i ; and Colom bian 24. Dani-h Bonds are 741 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents are .544 ; and the Old Five per Cents are 100 i. Shares are not in demand, and if sales increase it will soon prove to be " coute qui coute" with the holders of even the best•complexioned concerns. Great Western Railway are only 10 prem. ; Birmingham have receded to 77 prem. ; Greenwich are 3i discount ; Southampton are 6i a 6 dis. ; and the New ditto 19 prem. Anti-Dry Rut shares have declined to 9 dis. The shares of the Bank of Australasia are 27} prem., and the New ditto are 24i prem.

Margaret Read, an Irishwoman, was placed at the bar, charged by Ellen Shea, another Irishwoman, who appeared ill, with having robbed her of six shillings. The prisoner during the examination set up an Irish howl, and affected to cry, whist she clapped her hands and alarmed the neighbourhood, and occasionally exclaimed, " Och ► let me talk two words." She denied the charge. Mr. BENET; to procure further evidence, remandesl the prisoner. MAR YLEBONE. Yesterday John Banks, a well known desperate charac , ter, who had on several occasions been committed from this and other offices, was brought up in custody, together with William "forger, char.,ed with burgla , y and robbery at the house of Mr. Stevens, Pond -street, Hampstead. In reply to the charge, the prisoners said that after seeing prosecutor (who was very drunk) home, they were going alo n ng the road towards Hampstead, when a person. who was a perfect stranger to them, thrust into the hand, of Banks a small bundle, with respect to the contents of which neither of them knew an) thing. The prisoners were remanded for further examination, and it is expected that other parties in the vicinity of Hampstead, whose dwellings have within the last few weeks been burglariously entered, will be able to prove more cases against them. MANCHESTER COTTON TRADE, FRIDAY EVEN ' ING.—The demand for printing calicoes continues unabated, and a further advance, corresponding with the advance on ' Cetton, has taken place since this day se'nnight. The de mand for prints is unexampled, the chief of which are for the Brazils, United States, and East Indies. Fustians are also in excelent demand, and the prices understood to be remunerating. Yarns dull, and must continue so till nearer spring. At present no inducement to buy, on account of the closing of the continental rivers. EXTRAORDINARY DISCLOSURE AT THE HYDE PETTY SESSIONS, NEAR MANCHESTER.—At the above Sessions this week, after the Court was cleared, a most extraordinary case came before the Magistrates. George Eden, shoemaker, Stayley-bridge, was charged with havin;. l violated the persons of no less than five of his female appren titles, aged respectively t went) -one, seventeen, sixteen, fifteen, and thirteen years. Eden, it appeared, has been in the habit, for four or five years, of applying to the o%etseers of Ash ton for females, to learn, as he stated, the business of shoe binding, but invariably sent them to the cotton-mills, whose wages he always received. They were also stinted in the quantity of their food, and the quality anything but good. To accomplish hit brutal object, he has been in the habit of refusing the girls their holiday dresses, unless his wishes were first complied with. When threatened with exposure, he has not only cruelly beaten them, but further restricted their too scanty meals. The details would be unfit to meet the public eye. He was remanded till Satur day, to enable one of the witnesses to bring further evi dence. The sensation is extreme.—Front a Correspondent_ LETTER IROM LORD WESTERN TO EARL SPENCER.—In the Chelmsford Chronicle of to-day there appears a letter from Lord Western, the object of which is to make known the successful results of his own expe rience in creating a new and distinct breed of sheep, placing Merino wool upon a Leicestershire carcase, " per haps not exactly resembling the short finest clothing wool of Saxony (continues his Lordship), but a fine combing wool, superior to any that has heretofore been grown. It is possible that similar attempts have been made by other persons, but they have not been carried out upon any ge neral principle of extensive application to my knowledge." The Manchester Anti Corn-law Association, so lately formed, has now enrolled upwards of 1,000 members. No one can become a member except on the payment of an entrance fee of 55., so that there are no names for mere display. George Hadfield, E.g., solicitor, has off,:red to contribute lOU whenever the funds of the Association reach 900/. Wheeler's Manchester Chronide,the oldest of the Manchester Journals, established about 60 years ago, has within the last few days changed hands. A section of the Tories have, it is understood, found the ways and nican , . Mr. Leicester, its present editor, iy it is understood, to be its future one. MANcHEsTER.—Th e election of Councillors for this borough is now on the eve of taking place. The To ries, or rather those who have hitherto been considered the heads of that party, have advised that no opposition should take place, inasmuch, as any such proceedings on their part, might scent to sanction the Charter as a valid instru ment ; and which eminent counsel they avert, maintained as being worthless. This advice, the more ardent of the body refuse to act upon, and instead of art undisputed vic tory on the part of the Reformers, a fierce contest is now anticipated. PIMLICO PALACE.--A Morning Paper says, " The contemplated improvements west of the now Palace have eorarnette,d, when the a‘ , nues leading through Pim lico will be considerably improved, and the Palace more isolated than it is at present. The alteration will greatly flaprove the neighbourhood, and the approach to the Place he suit a bl e to a .)al rositienee."— ( A greater atidinfiiutely. more extensive improvetncnt would tot effteted by eithcT restoring the Park foot-paths to their original form, or paving a part, so that the public might w,dk instead of being compcllcd. as they now aro, to wade through it ant b deep ih mud. This is an improvement all those who walk this way require. Thos , inhabitants of Chelsea and Pim ' lico who ride or drive complain that from not being pet mit t e d to pass through the Park, unless thy are of the privileged caste, they are constrained to talc- a cireuitous route of a mile or more. It were a consummaion devoutly to be wished, that her M , st Gracious Majesty would be pleased to cause the abolition of this system of exclusivenes,,, as well as to effect a restoration of the good o'd dry paths of former days, when people mkt well; without danger of death free cold.] .1( 01 LAST N 14 . ; !IT'S GAZETTE d. to d. to 21 12 21 20 2 112 2, ENGLISH GOLD WATCH ,„ E „h•119 A.
